ISHILD.
Old German name meaning "ice-fighter," from is
"ice" and hild "battle, fight." Compare
with Estrild.
Some of the
greatest legends of the world bear unmistakable marks of Celtic
origin. Take for instance the supreme love-romance of Tristan and
Isolde. The name Tristan, older Drystan, is Celtic; that of Isolde,
on the other hand, is Germanic; Iswalda the "ice-ruler"
or Ishild (Iseult) the "ice-fighter." She was an
Irish Viking princess! He a Celtic hero. This was little
suspected by Wagner when he immortalized the legend by the greatest
love-music ever written.
